<p><strong>The 60 members of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Kakau Daji, Kaduna, kidnapped by suspected bandits have regained freedom after a month in captivity.</strong></p>
<p>On October 31, bandits stormed the church during a service and abducted no fewer than 60 members.</p>
<p>A few days later, the bandits killed three of the victims, leaving two critically injured after demanding ransom.</p>
<p>The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN)’s Chairman, Kaduna State Chapter, Rev Joseph John Hayab, who confirmed their release to <em>Daily Trust</em> on Saturday, said other nine people abducted at a different village were also released alongside the church worshippers on Friday evening.</p>
<p>He did not disclose whether ransom was paid before their release, but said the church told him that they were released and taken to the barrack by soldiers.</p>
<p>“Yes, the Kakau Daji church members have been released according to the Church last night and the Church told us that they played a vital role; so I commend them for that,” he said.</p>
<p>Another resident, whose family members were among those abducted but craved anonymity, said the ransom was paid before they were released but declined further comments.</p>
